Yeah, it’s surprising to me that there isn’t more work being done on software which can store, organize, and make accessible the knowledge created by such discussion forums, or by an institution.
The most interesting development seems to be Jupyter Notebook, but it’s got an absolutely bizarre (to me at least) architecture, and I’ve not had any luck getting it running / set up, and it doesn’t seem that amenable to collaboration.
It’s a shame there isn’t a suitable AI program for this sort of thing, say something which would work as well as sBook does for addresses.
